Default 1940 MCPs

I was asked today whether all of the Canadian DND-acquired Modified Civilian Pattern Chevs and Fords had military wheels, etc. or whether there were any purely civilian-style trucks some of which were shipped over to the UK for the 1st Division?

It has been stated that numbers of civilian trucks were acquired and just painted green, but has anyone actually any evidence of this as alll the photos I have seen of early non-CMP Canadian trucks had military tyres and wheels.
